Overview
[edit]This is a modified version of the {{Infobox Locomotive}} template. Several new features have been added such as auto-linking, default values for common fields that may be over ridden if another value is entered. Several optional features such as a secondary image, service type, locomotive type, etc. Categories are automatically added by locomotive builder, aar wheel type. You no longer need to add those categories to the article, it is automatically done for you.
- A note on the auto-linking features of this template.
The auto-linking features of this template are designed for ease of use. However, if you choose you may enter your own value. Any value you add to the available options that the template does not recognize will override the preprogrammed variables and print your customized text.
Usage
[edit]Working examples can be here This template has a large number of parameters, but only two are required:
Required fields
[edit]- name - The name that will appear above the top line of the infobox. This is a required field, if no name is provided "Please enter a name" will be displayed.
- powertype - The type of power that the locomotive employs. This is a required field, if no power type is given, "Missing power type" will be displayed. (e.g. "steam", "diesel", "diesel-electric", "electric", etc.)
Primary image
[edit]- image - The filename for the primary infobox image. If no image is provided the default image will be added. Also, if no primary image is added the article will automatically be added to Category:Rail transport articles needing images. When a primary image is provided, or added the article will automatically be removed from this category.
- imagesize - The size of the image in pixels (as in imagesize=200|), default value is 200; to use the image's actual size, specify imagesize as a blank value (as in imagesize=|). Setting image size above 300px are not recommended.
- caption - The image caption that will be displayed
Optional secondary image added in new Infobox version.
[edit]- image2 - The filename for the sedcondary infobox image. The secondary image is optional added for convenience. It is the editors choice how to use this option. (Perhaps e.g. cab view of the locomotive, different perspective, etc.)
- image2size - The size of the image in pixels (as in imagesize=200|), default value is 200; to use the image's actual size, specify imagesize as a blank value (as in imagesize=|). Setting image size above 300px are not recommended.
- caption2 - The image caption that will be displayed. If the image2 option is not used, this caption will not be displayed.
The remaining parameters are as follows:
[edit](in the order that they will appear in the template output)
- update - Optional field to show when the article was last updated.
- multiunit - Multiple unit for EMU and DMU trainsets. Does not display if option is not chosen. (Syntax: multiunit = <emu/dmu>)
- emu - Displays Electric Multiple Unit
- dmu - Displays Diesel Multiple Unit
Service classes
[edit]- Service Class - Type of locomotive, a unit, b unit, slug, control cab, etc.
- a unit - an A unit a fully equipped Locomotive, drivable by itse;f, or may be part of an MU.
- b unit - a B unit is similar to a locomotive in the fact that it has an engine (prime mover) and traction motors. However, it lacks a control cab and cannot be driven on it's own. It must be connected to an "A unit".
- cab - a fully equipped Locomotive also known as an A unit
- control - a Control cab, a vehicle that may resemble a locomotive may or may not contain traction motors by itself, it is non-drivable. Used to control a fully equipped locomotive. More often used in passenger service, seldom used in freight service.
- slug - a Slug, a diesel-electric locomotive "Booster" contains no cab and no engine (prime mover) of its own. Its traction motors are powered directly from the master unit. Or "Mother" locomotive.
- service - Type of service the locomotive was originally designed for
